Biographical notes in French on the following three singers. [Marie] Gabrielle Krauss (1842-1906), was an Austrian soprano. She studied at the Vienna Conservatory with Marchesi. She made her debut in Berlin (1859) as Mathilde in William Tell. Adelina Patti (1843-1919) was a Spanish 19th-century opera singer. The composer Verdi described her as being perhaps the finest singer who had ever lived and a 'stupendous artist'. Christina Nilsson (1843-1921) was a Swedish operatic soprano who was considered a rival to the Victorian era's most famous diva, Adelina Patti. She became a member of Royal Swedish Academy of Music in 1869.
